WTF?This user ALWAYS leaves
an edit summary.

The text "WTF?" is a link to Help:Edit summary, while "ALWAYS" is a link to https://xtools.wmflabs.org/editsummary/en.wikipedia.org/YourUserName, which displays the percentage of YourUserName's past edits that included a summary (as well as percentages over time and by edit type).

YourUserName in the URL is derived from {{ROOTPAGENAME}}, so if you need to use the box outside of your /User:YourUserName page hierarchy (e.g. on some discussion page), you can supply an unnamed parameter with your username explicitly specified, as in:

{{User edit summary|Jimbo Wales}}

which produces:

WTF?This user ALWAYS leaves
an edit summary.


There is also an optional left-text parameter, which you can use to specify text other than the default "WTF?" for the left side of the userbox, e.g. your edit summary percentage at last check:

{{User edit summary|Jimbo Wales|left-text=100%}}

That produces:

100%This user ALWAYS leaves
an edit summary.


Finally, there is an optional frequency parameter, which you can use to specify text other than the default "ALWAYS" in the right side of the userbox. For instance:

{{User edit summary|Jimbo Wales|left-text=97%|frequency=almost always}}

produces:

97%This user almost always leaves
an edit summary.
